The Shenandoah Region of the Porsche Club of America (PCA) is dedicated to enjoying Porsche cars in central Virginia. While Porsches are the common element, our members provide the club with variety and enthusiasm. We organize scenic driving tours, run six autocrosses each year, and take part in high-performance driver's education events at the Virginia International Raceway. Our premier event is the Richmond Porsche Meet (RPM), a June weekend including a concours, lunch, driving tour, tech session, banquet, and an autocross at the Southside Speedway. We also hold a Christmas party and several social meetings annually.

Nonmembers are welcome to participate in a social meeting, a driving tour, or an autocross. Learn more about the Shenandoah Region PCA and our upcoming events, the PCA Zone 2 comprising 10 nearby regions, the national PCA, and how to JOIN PCA.

Shenandoah's 17th Annual Richmond Porsche Meet (RPM): Join the Shenandoah Region for an enjoyable weekend May 31—June 2 in historic Richmond, VA. Friday-evening participants will gather to prep their cars at Dave's Auto Spa for the upcoming festivities and hang out and "kick the tires" at Euroclassics Porsche. On Saturday, we will host a tops-only concours (driving directions) along the banks of the scenic James River that will conclude with a catered lunch at our famous "Cafe Carrera." Afterward, we will have a short gimmick rally/fun drive to one of Richmond's well-known destinations, an informative tech session at Euroclassics Porsche, and an awards dinner banquet with a guest speaker. We will complete the weekend with an autocross on the 1/3-mile banked oval track at Southside Speedway (map), with an optional boxed lunch. All Porsche enthusiasts are welcome!
